    Is ELATOSOH Everyone Levitates Above Their Own Sea of Hell or is it Everyone Levitates Above Their Own Sea of Heaven? Personally I’m excited to try Everyone Levitates Above Their Own Sea of Hell. I had Everyone Levitates Above Their Own Sea of Heaven and really liked it. I’ve been hearing good things about Everyone Levitates Above Their Own Sea of Hell! Really hope my bottleshop gets a couple cans of Everyone Levitates Above Their Own Sea of Hell!

    Heaven 4.5, hell 4.6. Will probably need to revise these figures when I die.

    Brewing as we speak. It will be a GSB release.

    Release wise, it’s looking like:
    One-Dimensional Man - the week of 9/17
    Dead Men on Holiday - the week of 9/24 or 10/1

    When I was working at Threes, I named their Russian Imperial Stout “Everything Was Forever, Until It Was No More,” which I read in grad school. Alexei Yurchak found out about the beer and came by for a pint, while he was in town for a conference at NYU. He left us a few signed copies of the book. It was amazing.

    They said on the instagram post for 1DM that cans are no longer being sent out for distro. :slight_frown:

    Correct. We will no longer be distributing cans - only draft moving forward. Demand is too high on Long Island, currently. Everything has been moving on release days. Prior to ODM, we were holding 15-20 cases back for distribution, but could have easily sold them all during the releases. For ODM, we sold everything, and some folks still missed out. Holding back cans had created a two-fold problem for us: 1) we had to shut down local customers that were taking the time to attend releases; and 2) it put Twelve Percent in a hard spot, as far as spreading the wealth went (ie, why did x account get cans and not me).

    Wow, much respect here to @xenjoiii and his crew. This could not have been an easy decision but to show this kind of respect for your product and your customers is...refreshing. Cheers to you!

    There is no crew. It’s just me handling production at GSB. If I have a beer fermenting, I’m there 5-7 days a week.

    It was a difficult decision. The beer is totally drinkable. To be honest, it could have passed as a formidable interpretation of a West coast-style IPA (albeit a tad sweeter), but that was not it’s intented form. Passing off flawed product as something else is something that sincerely infuriates me, as a brewer.

    Thanks for the transparency. Just had a can of ODM at Haymaker and it was fantastic.
